About Our Shop

In 1999, Fay and Lyle Sipe took the huge step of diver­si­fy­ing their farm with a small quilt shop in the nearby town of Beaver­lodge, Alberta; pop­u­la­tion 2500. With their daugh­ter Erin Kyle the small fam­ily busi­ness, Around The Block, was opened in 2000. The first three years was about learn­ing the quilt busi­ness, plan­ning classes and mak­ing sam­ples. It became appar­ent that they needed to add a sewing machine line to the prod­ucts they car­ried and they became Husq­varna Viking sewing machine deal­ers in 2003. Three years ago Erin became a share­holder and the fol­low­ing year the busi­ness moved into a 4500 sg ft build­ing where it oper­ates today.

The store reflects the coun­try roots of the Sipe fam­ily and the mod­ern edge Erin brings in the warm wel­come you receive at the door, to the bright open atmos­phere for classes and cama­raderie shared with all who stop in to sew together. With four­teen foot ceil­ings the store sam­ples are a quilt gallery chang­ing reg­u­larly to cap­ture the artis­tic spirit in everyone.
